Walk Through The Web Wednesday – 4/17 Happy Wednesday my furiends, This week we’ve been having some fun with cat groups. As you might guess, The Human is a member of multiple cat groups on the web and we have our own Facebook page as well. One of the groups we subscribe to is “This Cat is GROMPY”. The Human was messing around with different features on her camera and submitted this photo to the group This Cat is GROMPY. So far I’ve received almost 500 reactions and comments. Some folks asked for a full cat photo so they could see what I really looked like. I don’t know, do I look that GROMPY ..read more

Hello Furiends, We are finally back in touch with the world – translation, our internet is working again. Meowza that was not fun! While we were out of touch with the world we were spending time in staff meetings and drawing up some plans for our blog that we think you will like. There will be more about this next week. Oliver, Lily and I are exhausted from trying to keep our Purrsonal Assistant focused. Sigh, it’s a hard job but someone’s gotta’ do it. Here are some snapshots of our week. I am exhausted from trying to keep our Purrsonal Assistant focused. – Oliver I was forced, during a w ..read more

Happy Wednesday Furiends! The weather in our neck of the woods is teasing us, snow is melting and sun is out and now The Human tells us that the weather people (whoever they are) are saying we’re going to get more snow. Meowza, is it spring or not??? The Tribe has decided to take each day as it comes and are enjoying ourselves despite the unpredictable weather (good thing we’re house cats!) Rain, snow, I don’t care as long as the fireplace is working. This is where I stand after my nap (in sight of The Human’s office chair) to beg for treats.I’m stationed in my favorite bed on the cat tree in ..read more

Happy Wednesday Furiends, We are a bit tired of the weather here in our neck of the woods. One day it rains, one day it’s 45 degrees and then the next morning it snows. Oliver, Lily and I have just about had enough of this! During one of his frequent work naps, Oliver dreamed of what it might be like if we each escaped to a climate that was more enjoyable. I’m dreaming of beaches, jungles and bakeries. I would like to spend some time in the warmth of the jungle visiting my wild cousins ..read more

We’re BAAAAAACK! As we’ve noted before, we’ve been having some staff issues and we do apologize. Our Purrsonal Assistant has been a bit of a trial but we believe we finally have her under control. Dealing with this woman has been like herding cats! First it was family moving to her town, Christmas and a family wedding. Then it was a horrible flu (the coughing really disturbed our sleep for two weeks!) and then it was finishing her first book in her cozy mystery series. We sat her down and told her she had FOF, fear of finishing, and she needed to get the last chapter done! Since this is a ser ..read more

Hello Furiends, Yes, it’s true, the deadline for our feature last week came and went and our Purrsonal Assistant completely dropped the ball. I am pleased to tell you that after an intense staff meeting and a stern warning (and some extra treats), The Human has changed her ways and promised to meet our stringent editorial standards. This also includes handling our comments on the wonderful blogs many of our furiends run. We advised her that there would be no future slacking (yes, she was quite ill but this should not effect the level of service at Feline Opines. We have been blessed (or curse ..read more

Oliver has a special message about this past week. In light of the suffering The Human has endured this week and the Tribe’s efforts to sooth her with purr therapy, I thought it would be a good week to talk about how we’re good for human health (even emotional health) and sometimes even saving your life! We hope you enjoy and that your humans stay healthy! Cat tries to heal owner’s headache This cat’s response to his owner’s headache has melted hearts after his healing attempts were shared on TikTok. Since L.A.-based hairstylist @jenjo_original shared the video it’s gained more than 3 ..read more

Hello Furiends, I hope the new year is treating you well in your neck of the woods. I know some of you are having a purrticularly brutal winter and hope you are all staying warm and cozy. It’s snowy in our neck of the woods but not too bad and that’s how The Human likes it. Since I had the opportunity to opine last week Oliver has insisted on a turn so, before we go into our news items, Oliver will provide his two cents. Also, this week we have a theme which is felines who live life as long haul truckers. We found some great stories and hope you enjoy them too. And now, heeeeeereeees Oliver ..read more

Hello Furiends, I hope you had a purrfectly wonderful New Year’s celebration. The holidays at our house have been a bit whacky. The Human’s family arrived in full force. They celebrated Christmas and New Year’s together and will soon be celebrating a wedding. Good grief, The Human lives a fairly sedate social life and suddenly she’s turned into a social butterfly! While she was galivanting around Lily, Oliver and I held a Feline Opines staff meeting and decided that we needed to get our points of view out in this blog so we have created some spots for all three of us to share our views of the ..read more

Oliver, Alberto and Lily are reflecting about the events of 2023 and will be posting some of their highlights soon but in the meantime (and because the staff at Feline Opines decided to take a holiday and missed our weekly “Walk Through The Web Wednesday” post, we present this mewsical message from Oliver with a traditional song. The lyrics were “adjusted” by The Human as per Oliver’s request. He reflects on those furiends we said good-bye to in 2023 and those who are with us, reminding us that we should treat all our furiends with kindness (even the dogs as Oliver notes ..read more
